How bout an an 8-track player for 69-72 they were a factory ordered option, or could've been dealer installed. But they were stock in those 4 years!!!

On trucks, it was January 1 1976, so some '76's have them and some dont, but all from '77 and up.

That is the one. The PO of my truck removed the tank, but left the rest. Those tanks are almost impossible to find. At least around my state.

How about the member that had a BlueGlass option on a white GMC
He said he bought it in Canton TX.

The 8 track was an accessory not an option at least not as a RPO. Drip rail molding is a rare option, offered in 69 discontinued in 70.

Yep. I have a '69 CST 396 truck that has the drip rail trim. They were retained by the rosette rivets used on VIN tags.

**special-K** · 10-22-2012, 10:56 PM

I have a N.O.S. drip rail molding set in my stash.

Another rare option: Custom Camper/10.

I had a '69 K/10 CST Custom Camper w/350,4spd,tach,tilt,a/c,buckets,wood floor,wide wheels & tires (16.5),aux. tank,posi front & rear,Maroon Poly,Red interior,and other options

camaro_red · 10-22-2012, 11:11 PM

72 Cheyenne Super Air, Tilt, Tach, Buckets in red, Speed Warning, AM/FM, GM Tissue dispenser, Shoulder Belts, Dealer installed cruize and cargo lamp..Someone added the power windows N locks

Vintage Windmills · 10-22-2012, 11:50 PM

some of the wider optional rims are quite rare.

**70cst** · 10-23-2012, 12:23 AM

How about the factory 8 Track with the Kick Panels speakers. Just a thought.

As stated earlier, all 8 tracks were accessories, not factory installed options.

Excuse me

70c10-08 · 10-23-2012, 06:12 AM

I dont think its an option but the trucks up noth of the border could get painted at least in pink lime green and purple and some rare or hard to find options are bedside mounted toolbox am/fm radio an o/d for the 3 spd and supposedly i remeber seeing a 1 ton truck on this site with a twin stick tranny and it wasnt a 4x4

Just think how many documentable 3OTT trucks can you think of that have a BB, SWB, A/C, Stepside bed and Cheyenne Super trim? Just what are the chances of that same truck staying that way? Yes its very rare but unfortunately not very desirable...

I've had two trucks that only came close to that. And,other unusual combos:

'72 SWB Highlander 402/3spd posi w/solid Ochre paint...not a Stepside or Cheyenne Super

'68 SWB CST 396/3spd posi tach buckets manual steering & brakes...one of two identical Red w/White top ordered by two brothers

'69 K/10 CST Custom Camper I already mentioned. Never seen another and it was highly optioned.

'71 SWB K/10 Custom 292/4spd p/s fr & rr posi 16" wheels wood floor tach fr & rr tow hooks manual throttle am/fm shoulder belts...base model with select options

'72 K/20 Highlander Custom Camper 4spd...loaded with options & accys

Hmmm ^^^
'67 Super Customs weren't exactly rare. That fender badge isn't an option. It's the emblem that came on '67 GMC Super Customs,the Chevy CST equivalent. If this thread was about rare or hard to find parts,that badge would be on the list. It's not available as a reproduced part.

**slomotion** · 10-24-2012, 08:53 AM

A C20 factory dually is sorta rare........

Iron Hauler · 10-24-2012, 06:17 PM
